- 1. (Nintendo) (2270↑, 283↓)A still-successful 100+ year old game company which once specialized in making card games. It started making video games in the 1970s and created a still-popular mascot called [Mario]. The company has been, and still is the console company to go to of you want quality games that last.
Nintendo is the proud owner of [the Last Great Console], known as the Super NES.
Author: AYB http://nintendo.urbanup.com/372582. (Nintendo) (1359↑, 298↓)A games company that is supposedly always "doomed", despite the fact that they make hundreds of millions of dollars every year."Nintendo is doomed\!"
3. (Nintendo) (1511↑, 462↓)Cares about games, and the people who play them. Not about how 1337 the graphics card is, or how many celebrities they can pay to stand around and act like they enjoy they're products. I've talked to Xbox and PS2 fans, and all they can talk about is how its compatible with all this other shit that no one really needs, and how the grapics are so damn cool. Well do better graphics make the game more fun? Does better graphics make GTA San Andreas or Halo less mindless and demeaning? Show me any new xbox 360 or PS3 games that can rival Super Smash Brothers, or Super Mario 64, or Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The short answer is none of them. Not to mention the cost difference. I'm buying a game console, not a computer/dvd player/ipod. Im sorry if you disagree, but good graphics and mindless violence do not a good game make.I can play Super Mario 64 for hours without worrying about my sanity, or whether I'm going to be scarred for life by something horrible. Can't say the same for GTA SA.

Author: Adam http://nintendo.urbanup.com/986636. (Nintendo) (616↑, 145↓)A fantastic video game company overlooked because of the waining intellect of the average American gamer, although it's still very popular in it's native Japan. Without them, the modern day video company would be in a dead end due to the arcade crash of the 1980's. Console History: Nintendo reinvigorated the market with the very successful Nintendo Entertainment System released in 1985; it's Japanese counterpart, the Famicom, was also very successful. Nintendo continued this success with the release of the Super Famicom in Japan and the Super NES in America and Europe. Although it faced stiff competition from the rival Sega's Genesis console, it was largely more successful with original games such as the Legend of Zelda: a Link to the Past, Star Fox, Donkey Kong Country, and the ever famous Mario series. The Nintendo 64, originally called project reality or Ultra 64, was released in 1996, A year later than Sony's Playstation. The N64 sported alot of popular and high-grossing games, from original titles licensed by Nintendo like Super Mario 64 and the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, to third party hits such as Banjo-Kazooie and Goldeneye 64. Alot of games on the N64 were considered to be top notch and have gain recognition from critics and fans alike. The most noticeable games on the N64 were Super Mario 64 due to it's revolutionary breakthrough into a fully rendered 3D environment and the use of an innovative camera system, the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time due to its remarkable targeting system and fantastic horseback riding system, and Goldeneye 64 due to its stupendous first person controls that lead the way for all first person shooters in the years to come. After the release of the Playstation 2 a year earlier and the downfall of Sega's Dreamcast in the new millenium, the Nintendo Gamecube was released; shortly after Microsoft's attempt at video game consoles, the XBox, came in to view. Although the PS2 and the XBox were more successful financial wise to Gamecube, Nintendo stil managed to survive with some hit titles such as Metroid Prime, Resident Evil 4, Viewtiful Joe, and the Mario series. The most anticipated game in the Gamecube's lifetime is without a doubt the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which is being praised for its vivid graphics that look as if they were on a next generation console and the ability to fight enemies on horseback. Twilight Princess is also being called Nintendo's Halo, which is a game that people went crazt over even though it looks like an average First Person Shooter, nowhere near Metroid Prime, and has the qualities to match. Nintendo is in tip-top shape with the upcoming release of the Revolution, which has access to 20+ years of downloadable Nintendo games and a mysterious controller, recently called the big gun in a interview with Miyamoto (creator of the Mario, Zelda, and F-Zero series), which is rumored to have everything from gizmos that can change the controllers temperature, a gyroscope, and a touch screen. Sony and Microsoft are also unleashing their next generation comsoles in the next couple of months, the Playstation 3 and the XBox 360. The most unpopular of the next gen consoles is the XBox 360 for its lack of innovation. Handheld: COmbining the success of the NES and the Game & Watch handheld system, Nitendo product designer Gunpei Yokoi developed the Game Boy, which is one of the most successful handhelds ever. It has spawned countless incarnations including the Color and Advance versions. Along side its one-screened advanced counterpart, the Nintendo DS is currently dominating the Japanese market with it's library of original titles, unlike its rival the PSP which has mostly ported titles. The Nintendo DS is doing fairly in the North American market with its loyal fanbase and casual gamers, 12 Nintendo DS systems were recently brought along on a expedition to the summit of Mount Everest because of the systems communication features. All of the consoles were reported to be working fine even in record low temperatures, that leaves the question of how the PSP would fair in cold weather, it's console counterpart the PS2 isn't that sturdy of a console so that question is most likely leaning to NO.Everyone would be screwed without Nintendo, and quite frankly, are screwing themselves with blind purchases of poor quality Microsoft and/or Sony games.

Author: only$19.99,less s+h http://nintendo.urbanup.com/4131028. (nintendo) (190↑, 43↓)Roughly translated, "Leave it to heaven." A large gaming corporation, that is over 100 years old. In the past highly respected by all gamers, now sometimes ridiculed. Falsly excused of making "kiddie games" or "kid only games," when the only child like games Nintendo produces are Pokemon and possibly Kirby. The "kiddie game" rumor started in the early 90s when Sega advertised a commerical stating their version of Mortal Kombat featured blood as opposed to the SNES version. Sega stated, "that we may make games that Ninendo won't." When actually, Acclaim (I believe) didn't decide to add blood until they remade Mortal Kombat for the Sega Genesis. Sony expanded on this rumor in 1996 to trick a large majority of the public. For someone reason the public believes everything that they hear on tv, instead of doing their own research."That's so 8-Bit" "Know your roots" "Enough with the bling, bling\! I perfer old skool." All of the above refer to the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).
Author: NmainiacX http://nintendo.urbanup.com/14329239. (Nintendo) (196↑, 87↓)A: The games company that created Mario, Donkey Kong, invented the Shoulder Button, D-Pad and bought the world pokémon...sadly. A games company who are often underestimated due to the idiocy of there central fanbase, and stereotyped due to the idiocy of rival fanbases. The company are still making games today, and are often overlooked due to a different and refreshing approach. Although they are prefered by some gamers for there innovation, who's willingness to take risks instead of churning out numerous near identical updates to once successfull games (see:[EA]) is often overlooked by the now saturated games industry. The fans of Nintendo are often critisized for there single viewed devotion to Nintendo, which is true of many of them, who, confused by the superiority of the N64 still can't see that even though they have been devoted fans of nintendo for the majority of there natural lives, that other games machines exist to, (see:[sonyroolz]for this in reverse) and that nintendo are currently screwing there loyal fans by forcing them to buy Game Boys and other needless apparels just to play there most "Innovative" games. B: A Japanese saying translating to "It's In The Hands Of The Gods Now"A: 1: Nintendo are 7h3 |\nintendo0\>\<0|\nintendo5 because I wish it was still 1998. 2: Nintendo are crap because I am as single minded in my devotion to sony/x-box as I say their fans are to them. 3: Nintendo are a games company who are prefered by some people, and not by others. 4: Nintendo stole all there ideas for metroid from Halo, which I play online due to the Origonal Nintendo's modem setting precident back in 1986, whilst using my joypad the size of a housebrick which has analogue technology, shoulder buttons and a layout/colour scheme stolen from a 14 year old nintendo console. 5: Nintendo, Sony and X-box are part of the console wars, a futile war between people who can't quite grasp the concept that no company is 100% infallible and needing reconpence for there own failing existance. B: 1: Regardless of people arguing about pathetic little preferences, Nintendo.
Author: Eden06 http://nintendo.urbanup.com/112890110. (Nintendo) (97↑, 25↓)A Japanese company that pulled videogaming out of the gutter in the mid 80's, with quality, innovative, original games. Had a virtual monopoly in the late 80s and early 90s. Has lost marketshare more recently to Sony and Microsoft due to a series of mistakes and a "kiddy" image, which is hard to shake. One mistake was deciding to use carts intstead of CDs with the n64, which made sense at the time (faster load times), but in hindsight, seems idiotic. Still popular with retro gamers, non-gamers, females, and younger gamers, although there really isn't much coming out on the GC at this point in time. Most of the developers have jumped ship, and Nintendo is focusing more on its handhelds. Nintendo still manages to turn a profit however due to cost effective hardware, unlike its competitors who see huge losses before any return.-Consoles include the NES, SNES, N64, GC; handhelds: GB, VB, GBC, GBA, DS -franchises: Metroid, Mario, Donkey Kong, Starfox; many franchises that are now on other consoles were originally Nintendo games- Perfect Dark, Final Fantasy, Castlevania, Metal Gear, etc
Author: afraud http://nintendo.urbanup.com/160828811. (Nintendo) (83↑, 27↓)Nintendo is a video game company that has been around for about 107 or more years and started out as a card company with their "Hanafunda" cards in 1889. They managed to become Japan's biggest playing card company. In 1969-82, Nintendo began making toys then later on went into arcades. Druing this year range Shigeru Miyamoto joined Nintendo and made Radar Scope (Arcade) which wasn't as big a hit as his second game Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong was Nintendo's very first hit. Mario's first appearance was also in Donkey Kong only Mario was a Carpenter named Jumpman at the time. Nintendo also began making the Famicon (NES) in this time era. Then in the year range of 1983-1989 Nintendo nearly had complete control of the gaming industry with the Famicon (NES). 1990-1997, Sega enters the picture with the Genises (Mega Drive) and competition in the gaming industry begins to rise. Nintendo also released the SNES (super Famicon). Then later on in this era, Nintendo released the Nintendo 64, after Sony had the Playstation and Sega had the Saturn already released. In the 1998-2005 (And early 06') era, Nintendo went handheld with GB, then soon after GBC and GBP. Then Nintendo advanced their handhelds with GBA, and now with the Nintendo DS (Has nothing to do with GBA dispite it's playback with GBA cartridges) and Sony's competing PSP. Home console wise, Sony had the PS2, Sega had Dreamcast which didn't last for long, and Microsoft entered the picture with Xbox and Nintendo came out with the GameCube which was aimed at younger audiences to expand the gamer limit. Though the GameCube did have many Mature rated titles it was aimed mainly toward children and teens alike. Now Sony is currently in works on PS3 and Microsoft has already launched the Xbox360, while Nintendo will come in last with the Nintendo Revolution which will also be the cheapest of the Next Generation home consoles. Other Nintendo notes: Nintendo attempted to make a Taxi and Love Hotel but failed. Nintendo also made a vaccum. Nintendo also invented most of the features we use today, such as: Shoulder buttons, rumble/vibration, wireless controller, D-pad, handheld playback, and many many more features. (Note: Do not give Nintendo credit for built in lights on the handhelds, for Sega was first to use this technology.Fanboys must bash Nintendo out of jealousy huh?

Author: huggaboo http://nintendo.urbanup.com/126076825. (Nintendo) (19↑, 10↓)Nintendo, the company made famous for the NES (Nintendo Entertainment system) and the SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment system) was originally a card game manufacturing company, which became popular in Japan. They later became a video game manufacturing company. Their first consoles were a series of "Color T.V. Games." Then created the NES. Which was popular for the Super Mario Bros. game, which the main character, Mario, set a staple for Nintendo. The SNES came along, followed by the Nintendo 64. Until 2001, the GameCube came, and Nintendo was presumably put into Third Place in the [Console Wars] (see article for details) and lost the 2001-2004 Console race. Then, in 2004, Nintendo released a new, portable, gaming device, The Nintendo DS (dual screen.) When 2006 rolled along, Nintendo revealed their new console, the Nintendo Wii. Using motion sensing technology, it inspired many to get off their couches and actually feel as if they were inside of the game."Nintendo was one of the first companies to make a video gaming console."

Author: Bfox http://nintendo.urbanup.com/455029831. (Nintendo) (33↑, 28↓)Best video game company out there. Creators of thriving game series such as Mario, The Legend of Zelda and Metroid. Twilight Princess for the Wii really beats Halo 2/GoW because of the gameplay. Sure, GoW and Halo 2 have better graphics, but they have to be the most repetitive games, and must require the least amount of skill out there. Twilight Princess has decent graphics, but its gameplay is simply amazing. You have several different dungeons and bosses to face off against, several different items to beat these bosses, and several different mini-quests to aide you in completing the game. The game requires a lot of dedication, and requires focus to complete. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is going to set the bar for Halo 3. Halo 3, which will probably be as generic of a shooter as Halo: CE and Halo 2, will only have good graphics. Not to mention that the idea of buying a small Master Chief helmet is simply retarded. Metroid Corruption will have great graphics, excellent gameplay, and awesome WiFi multiplayer. Not to mention, Nintendo's wifi is... FREE. You may not be able to talk to people on it (but who cares, all people do on Xbox live is complain and call other people noobs). Nintendo also creates cost-effecient games. Nintendo has created some of the greatest games of all-time. The best game has to be The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The graphics were great for it (at its time) and it had incredible game play. Halo series' gameplay, as mentioned earlier, is generic and takes no skill and concentration. Wow\! I have an assault rifle and a grenade\! I'm going to throw the grenade and blindly shoot my rifle till I run out of ammo\! z0mg\! I GOT 12 KILLS\! WOO\! The Nintendo Wii is awesome too. I recently got it a few weeks ago, and it has yet to disappoint me. The cost, a mere 250$, makes the system well worth it. The Wii ousts the 360 and the PS3 well over. One feature of the PS3, a terrible one I may add, is the fact that you cannot bring a game to someone elses house and expect to play it right away. Nooo you cannot\! It costs 2$ to play a game on someone else's PS3. The PS3's six-axis controller is the biggest rip off of the Wii's wii remote/nunchuck controller. Wii Sports, the game that comes with the Wii to teach you the usage of the controller, is decent and probably is more fun than most PS3 games. Nintendo also has other amazing systems, such as the Game Cube, Nintendo DS, N64, Gameboy Advance (SP), Gameboy (color/pocket), SNES and NES. Not one of those systems disappointed me. I own a Wii, GCN, DS, N64, GBA, SNES, and NES. All those systems have great games to back them up.The Nintendo game company will not disappoint you with the amazing game play they provide you with on all of their consoles.

Author: Pieku http://nintendo.urbanup.com/201207733. (Nintendo) (19↑, 19↓)Synonymous with [fanboy]. A fantastically successful company known for bringing video games to the masses, Nintendo is home to at least attempting innovation, and despite some dissent among "hardcore" gamers that Nintendo caters to kids, tends to succeed more often than not -- if not critically, then at least commercially. Though they tend to deny it, Nintendo inarguably possesses the greatest legion of fanboys any console company has ever seen. "Character Battles" that occur on popular websites rarely see any non-Nintendo character win, despite game sales figures which would suggest other characters would win. The most popular games also tend to be Nintendo, almost all the time -- even though sales figures do not support such popularity. While sales figures of the Nintendo Wii have been staggeringly high, game quality is particularly low, especially when compared to Microsoft's XBox 360, the Sony Playstation 2, and even Nintendo's own Gamecube. Meta-review scores of Nintendo Wii games by independent websites are nearly all below-average, while, despite a general poor implementation of the WiiMote/Nunchuck control inputs, User Reviews rate them at a much higher level. The only explanation is fanboy.When someone talks about how great something is, that has great market success, but which is, in actuality, quite mediocre: "You're so Nintendo."

Author: Uranium Bullet http://nintendo.urbanup.com/303853145. (Nintendo) (21↑, 52↓)This company started out with the best stuff. the NES, and then the SNES, were among the best. However, since the competition from companies such as Sony and Microsoft, they have not been faring so well. At the turn of the 2nd generation of videogaming, it was seen that games were converting from cartridges to dics, and that the dataspace available would be remarkably higher in comparison to the previous generation. With this came potential for extremely advanced graphics (compared to the 8bit days of yore) online capabilities, more advanced gameplay, and not to mention longer games. But... Nintendo came in "last place" in the second generation console war for a few reasons: The concept of more realistic graphics appealed to many and was a new hype, and Nintendo's Gamecube did not have the capacity to play games with this level, nor did its discs. Its controller was also a turn off to the crowds, and the more dynamic controllers of the Xbox and the PS2 won over. Also, the revolutionary online techniques and community of Mircosoft was not to be outdone by anybody, and the Nintendo lost even more ground. Nintendo also had another problem, aside from hardware issues. It's games. The concepts of the games were immediately aged, and Mario, Zelda, Kirby, and the like were all covered with a layer of dust. Brand new series and game makers were sucked in to the advanced systems and made most of the successful market of games. Games such as the Halo series, Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid, Jax & Daxter, and many more were a new sight for everybody. The old games were not able to shine because most people were thinking "been there done that" and Nintendo's newer versions of previous titles were left in the dust. Then they had a second shot in the 3rd generation... The Nintendo Wii was the cheapest system at launch and had brought back an old trick-motion sensing. Althought thie was originally developed by Sony, Nintendo claimed it was revolutionary. This worked for several reasons: Most of the gaming market is made up of minors, (under 18), and most had not heard of the old controller from Pelican for the PS1. As for those who did know, you could say that nobody bothered with a publicly announced lawsuit (up till December 2006, as that was when this review was written). Now once again, the concept of gaming graphics displayed in 1080p (the best for the 3rd gen on PS3), many people dreamt of that quality of gaming. However, Nintendo was (once again) not concerned with graphics. Their motion sensing controller appealed more to kids who didn't care about HD, and it was artificially "new". there was also another reason it succeeded at the start: it's price. With the cost of the Wii starting at around $250, it was by far the cheapest console, with the twist of a motion sensing controller. However... The PS3 was the most saught after, seeing as people lined up for up to a week to get it, and all sold out almost immdetiately. The Xbox 360 had come out a year before and had a headstart, but the Wii was hot on it's heals. However, this is mostly because of the controller concepts and low cost. It's not all fun and games for the Wii buyers. Their controller relied mostly upon motion sensing, and had very few buttons. this was great for things such as sword fighting, bowling, and other stationary activities, but it greatly limited the rest of the functions. FPS, RPG and some other genres that involved platforming were restricted and were extremely hard to incorperate with the Wii controller. It also limited those who did not want to have to rely on physical accuracy to beat games or even play them. Nintendo will have to improve their graphics, get new games, improve their game quantities, get a legit online community, and make a dynamic controller to win the 4th gen...if they can.Nintendo was doing great until graphics and game content became an issue
